    A Rickenbacker bass. They look AMAZING and sound superb, but I've played a few (borrowed various ones for studio sessions) and never found one that was anywhere near comfortable enough to drop £1500 on one.

    Ooh, can I take the Primus please!?

    I’d be charging the singer for mic hire at every gig, otherwise you’re just enabling them.

    I’d have that!! I’m not even in a metal band anymore but that’s FIT!!

    Look at that neck joint, is it MDP...? 😄

    I only *play* one at once, does that count?

    Same as anything in this life: buy cheap, buy twice.

    I used to play the mandolin, but my kids broke it years ago and I haven’t bought a replacement. Maybe one day I’ll get back into it. I’m quite handy on the recorder too. Not that that’s any use to anyone ☹️

    The Brown Album - Primus

    $500 for bringing a fretless, then dismissed for playing above the first octave. On second thoughts I’d just stay in bed.

    Have we had Guy Pratt’s output on Pink Floyd’s “Pulse” yet? A master class in supportive playing, and choosing a tone/bass to suit the song.

    Extended range basses are perfect for certain situations; doubling synth bass lines in the 80s would have been much more difficult without being able to go lower than E. Horses for courses.

    Scott Thunes on Zappa’s ‘Broadway the Hardway’ album. Great, meaty tone that cuts through the mix and nice, tight playing too.

    Eurgh! Don’t fancy yours much!

    Doesn’t matter how crap it was, I’m still jealous.

    I’m a sucker for ash, but yeah, it can be heavy.

    I take issue with Iron Maiden repeatedly informing me that it’s “2 minutes to midnight”. It’s not, it’s twenty past two n the afternoon. come on ‘arry, have a word with yourself.

    Yeah, I ‘be got these in my Jazzes, and they are great pickups that punch way above their weight.

    FWIW I’ve had Boss, Aguilar, EBS, EHX etc... In the past and have settled on the Valeton; it sounds and behaves just like an OC2, is a fraction of the size and less than half the price of a used OC2. You might be surprised if you try one.

    Oi, Cornershop, Nooo! Not everybody needs a bosom for a pillow! Actually, it’s much more comfortable to use a real pillow, why would they be so cavalier about sleep health? why??
